	<P><H3>Psalm 128</H3>
	<SUP class="vnum">1</SUP> Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth, may Israel now say: 
	<SUP class="vnum">2</SUP> Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth: yet they have not prevailed against me. 
	<SUP class="vnum">3</SUP> The plowers plowed upon my back: they made long their furrows. 
	<SUP class="vnum">4</SUP> The LORD is righteous: he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked. 
	<SUP class="vnum">5</SUP> Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion. 
	<SUP class="vnum">6</SUP> Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up: 
	<SUP class="vnum">7</SUP> Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom. 
	<SUP class="vnum">8</SUP> Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the LORD be upon you: we bless you in the name of the LORD. <I><B>ALLELUIA.</B></I>
